Broken Blade. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The only mountain with a name among the countless nameless hills outside of the 100,000 Great Mountains is also the outermost place under the control of the Xuanling Sect. As its name suggests, the mountain stands like a half-truncated sword in the mountains.
At this moment, there are no clouds, and the stars and the moon emit a faint faint light, shining on the top of the blade as flat as a broken sword's mouth, clear as day.
However, there was a strange aura at the top of the Broken Sword's edge, and a man shrouded in black robes with only one pair of eyes exposed, sat peacefully in the middle. I saw that his hands were gesturing mystically one after another, and every once in a while, a thick black gas emanated from his body, which quickly condensed into a half-foot-large vortex air mass and injected it into a huge copper furnace not far in front of him.
This seems to be an alchemy furnace.
The furnace is half a zhang tall and one zhang wide in diameter, but at this moment, it can be seen that the copper furnace is not alchemy, because there is no fire outside the furnace, and the lid is not covered at all, obviously the black-robed man is just doing other things with the help of the alchemy furnace.
Squeak squeak!
Listening carefully, there was a faint, almost imperceptible sound from time to time from inside the furnace, like the chirping of insects.
Suddenly, the black-robed man opened his mouth and shouted, "Soul Eater!
As soon as the words fell, the furnace squeaked loudly, and through the diffuse black gas, it could be seen that the furnace was crawling with hundreds of small insects one inch long, fighting to the death.
It turned out that the black-robed man was cultivating these Soul Eater Worms by raising Gu, and it was foreseeable that these hundreds of Soul Eater Worms, after some fighting, would definitely be the strongest Worm King left.
The black-robed man was still seated, still pouring black qi into the furnace, looking very patient, he had already experienced it twice, and knew that it would take a long time for the Soul Eater to decide the winner.
Time passed, the Soul Eater in the furnace gradually decreased, and the bright moon in the starry sky gradually rose to the very center.
At this moment, the mutation occurred suddenly, almost without warning, and a bolt of lightning slashed through the sky.
Syllable!
With the fierce thunder, the lightning struck straight down, hitting the copper furnace right in the middle, completely dispersing the diffuse black gas and hitting the furnace at once. In an instant, lightning flashed, scattering from the copper furnace and splashing everywhere.
It's so weird! There are no clouds in the starry sky, where does the lightning and thunder come from?
"Heavenly Thunder!"
The black-robed man exclaimed, jumped up from the ground, and quickly retreated back ten zhang, avoiding the lightning in all directions.
It turns out that this is the legendary heavenly thunder, which is said to come from a place outside the sky, mysterious and unpredictable, once hit by it, there is no reason to be spared.
After a moment, the lightning disappeared, and Broken Sword Blade returned to its original tranquility, as if the thunder had not fallen just now.
The black-robed man waited for a long time before he dared to slowly step forward to check. His whole body was shrouded in black robes, and he couldn't see what his face was, but from his cautious movements, it could be seen that he didn't seem to have much hope for the copper furnace struck by the heavenly lightning.
Unexpectedly, when he approached the copper furnace to take a look, he saw that there were still more than a hundred soul devouring insects alive in the furnace, which were slowly recovering from the thunder bombardment, and soon continued to kill each other.
"These soul eaters from the secret realm are equally mysterious, and they are not even afraid of heavenly thunder. The black-robed man couldn't help laughing.
Then he didn't continue to sit nearby, but stayed away from Shizhang, silently waiting for the result of the battle of the Copper Furnace Soul Eater. Although the Soul Eater does not have the black qi provided by him, the final effect will be a little weaker, but if there is another thunderbolt, the gain will outweigh the loss. He didn't dare to say that he could avoid it, the Soul Eater was not afraid of the thunder bombardment, he was very afraid.
Just now, the black-robed man just hurriedly glanced at the copper furnace, only to see that there were still a hundred or so Soul Eater Worms alive, and he didn't look at them carefully, if he only looked carefully, he must have seen that one of them had undergone major changes.
It was a soul-eater hiding in a corner, and it looked unremarkable. In fact, it hadn't been here all the time before, and the place it was in before was the center of the Heavenly Thunder that had just bombarded, that is, the Heavenly Thunder had just bombarded this Soul Eater. But it didn't break its bones, it kept its body intact. On the contrary, the Soul Eaters around it were not so lucky, and they all crumbled into powder.
As the black-robed man moved away, this inconspicuous soul eater began to move.
......
Gu Yu opened his eyes, as if he had been asleep for a thousand years, and he was completely unable to adapt to what he saw in front of him.
"Where am I?"
This was the first thought in Gu Yu's mind, and he couldn't help but want to say it, but he couldn't say it at all, and instead he could only think about it in his mind.
No one answered Gu Yu's question, so he could only observe for himself: the distance around him was full of copper walls, and all that was left was the dark sky above his head that seemed to be out of sight.
It's like a cage.
However, Gu Yu didn't have time to inspect his surroundings next, because he found that he was surrounded by countless large, strange insects, each of which looked as tall as him, and it was more comforting that these insects were some distance away from him.
"Squeak!"
Gu Yu couldn't help but let out a loud scream when he was frightened, but when the words came to his mouth, it was a slight and weak insect chirp, as if he had been seriously injured.
"What's wrong with me?" Gu Yu could only think in his heart, then looked down at his body, and couldn't help but let out a louder exclamation, of course, it was still a weak soft cry.
Gu Yu was really frightened, he looked down and saw not the body of his hands and feet, but the body of a crimson insect.
After a long time, Gu Yu gradually came back to his senses: "I became a worm!"
What's going on?
Gu Yu couldn't figure it out at all.
All he remembered was that he had cancer and had few days left to live, and before that, he had fallen into a deep sleep and had no intention of waking up again. But now that I woke up, I was not in a hospital bed, but in a completely strange and weird place, and what was even more strange was that I had become a worm.
Is this a time travel, or is it reincarnation?
Gu Yu had no way of judging, only that he was no longer a human, but a strange bug, exactly the same as many bugs around him. Fortunately, his conscious mind is still the human mind, or rather, he still retains the human soul.
At this moment, all the insects around seemed to be dizzy, so they didn't attack Gu Yu, so Gu Yu, who had calmed down slightly, had time to think, and only then did he have time to observe everything he saw around him.
He looked at the nearest bug and saw that it was a completely unknown species.
The insect has a red, round body, large eyes on the head, occupying most of the head, a very small mouth, a row of small teeth exposed, which seems to be not good at biting, a bulging belly in the back, occupying two-thirds of the volume of the body, and a slender four-legged underneath the body, which is obviously not a good jumping type, with two long antennae in front of it, which seem to be whiskers and claws, and behind the body are a pair of wings as thin as cicada wings.
If it's just these characteristics, it can't be said that the insect is weird, the main thing is that the insect exudes a thick black gas, which is wrapped around the body and will not disperse at all, so that people can know at a glance that this is not a good insect.
As for how big the bug was, Gu Yu didn't know because there was no comparison to compare it with.
Suddenly, a very hungry feeling appeared in Gu Yu's mind: I really wanted to absorb the black gas emitted by these insects, as long as I absorbed the black gas, I would be very satisfied.
This feeling made Gu Yu shudder, and he couldn't help but shake his head, as if to drive this thought out of his mind.
